The announcement that a question about citizenship will be reinstated to the 2020 Census has caused quite a triggering from Democrats, and DNC Chairman Tom Perez is among them. Here’s why:
DNC chair @TomPerez calls it “insulting to the people who gave their lives in the passage" of the Voting Rights Act to use it as a "perverse justification for voter suppression" by adding a citizenship question to the Census. https://t.co/Smsb2a9dFN

Asking about citizenship is akin to an attempt at voter suppression?
So?!? They are finally admitting illegals vote?

Does Perez realize how that comes across? Maybe he doesn’t care.
Suppressing the votes of people who have no right to vote is good. Only a Democrat who has no respect for the law could fail to understand that. https://t.co/XdCBvB9qDh
